Benefit Boi ing Concealer

Recently i have been having lots of late nights; studying, writing essays and possibly partying. Due to all of these i have had even worse under eye circles than i usually would have! I do have very stained under eye's already, a dark blue colour (not attractive) and the amount of concealer i used trying to hide these buggers is unreal.

I think i have found a really good gem here, it is the Benefit Boi ing Concealer and it is £17.50, so quite a expensive concealer. At such a price, i didn't want a rubbishy concealer as you might be able to understand.

I hadn't needed to worry about it being rubbish, it is absolutely great! I got it in its lightest shade 1, and this seems to be very light reflective and all that funky stuff (yes.. i did actually say funky).

It has a very creamy consistency, which feels like it moisturises my skin as-well and doesn't cling to those annoying occasional dry patches.

It has a lovely flawless finish and i would be completely happy wearing this on its own, without another concealer on the top! It seems to last most of the day, when i am playing sport or in the gym it seems to wear off (probably due to the sweat) however it doesn't go completely.

I set it with powder which does make it last longer.

 This definitely has a permanent place in my everyday make up drawer now! Have you ever tried this concealer? What did you think?

Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation - Sample

Just before the summer holidays i went to the Benefit Counter to buy a few skincare bits, anyway i got talking to the Benefit lady about foundation and she ended up giving me this sample to try. It is a 3 ml sample, so can last quite a while.

I wanted to talk about this as it retails for around £20.00, which is a lot so my question was, is it worth it?

 The shade i was given was 'i am so money- honey', and if i bought the foundation i would get the lighter shade.
A great thing about this foundation after wearing it for a couple of days, it did not break me out!
But i found it quite hard to blend, and it dried fast on your face.I definitely did not feel that it brightened my face up, just it covered up what it needed to.

This is definitely a medium-full coverage foundation.

 For those with oily skin (like myself),  it is oil free but not matte!

Overall i probably at the moment would not buy this product at full price, but things could change!

What did you think about this foundation? Have you tried it?

Liz Earle Sheer Tint

Today i am going to review the Liz Earle sheer tinted moisturiser!

In the summer or whenever its hot i feel like foundation is way too heavy for my skin and i want something lighter. So i opt for a tinted moisturiser with a fair amount of coverage, some lucky ladies don't have to wear anything because they have perfect skin, where as i have small spots here and there.

I have found this tinted moisturiser to be very good on my skin, it doesn't make me feel to oily as it dries and sinks in very easily! It has not caused any breakouts and really given me the summer glow which we all want (with a bit of bronzer).

Also i wanted some sun protection as well, this has SPF15 as do most, but depending how hot it is i will either reapply this or regular sunscreen.

The packaging feels expensive, as it is in one of those 40ml bottles which makes you use a minuscule amount, which is good as a little goes a long way!

The only real let down is the price- £21, if you live in England some sun is an occasion to be remembered as it doesn't stay for long. If you only use this in the summer, like myself you will really need to only buy this once a year, but if you wear this as your 'base' all year round it would be alot of money.

So i am going to give this 4* out of 5, as the let down is the price!
